Postponement alters Hurricanes' home schedule

Published: Wednesday, January 22, 2014 at 12:15 AM.

The Carolina Hurricanes had their game postponed Tuesday night at Philadelphia because of a winter storm.

Because of that, the date of a game later this week has been moved in Raleigh.

The Hurricanes will make up Tuesday night’s game by playing at 6 tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers at Wells Fargo Center.

Then the Hurricanes play their originally scheduled game Thursday night at Buffalo.

Because NHL teams aren’t permitted to play games on three consecutive days, that means Friday night’s home game against the Ottawa Senators has been moved to noon Saturday at PNC Arena.

The team announced that it understands the postponement might cause inconveniences for some fans holding tickets to the game originally scheduled for Friday. So tickets can be exchanged for any of the teams remaining Friday night games, while season ticket holders retain the option of exchanging tickets via the season ticket holder exchange program.

Also, the team will offer $2 sodas and $1 popcorn for fans Saturday afternoon.
